Haze Flopping?

Phatkav · Haze Flopping?

So Haze is suppose to come out today I think and so far, the review(s) aren't looking good. IGN reviewed the game and they gave it.... a 4.5. Ouch

Such a horrible start for the game. But today and tomorrow more reviews will start coming in so we will see then.

IGN Review

Haze reviews on Gamerankins

Another flop for another exclusive PS3 game?

Yes Twinnuke was telling me...man developers should care about us and not MONEY.

IGN is so.. Xbox FANBOYS SCREW THEM [mod edit] I am sure gamespot will give it a 7 atleast..

Gamespot gave the game 6/10 saying "This madly inconsistent shooter offsets a number of thrilling moments with terrible artificial intelligence and an awful story."[17]

Early reviews from Japanese magazine Famitsu awarded the game 34/40, and PlayStation Magazine Italy awarded the game 9/10.

Nope, no 7 from gamespot

Sorry

also
Swedish magazine Gamereactor gave Haze a score of 6/10, but Ubisoft requested the review be taken down from their website until the game is released.[18]

hahahaha this game i thought it would be good but it turned out that it sucks, lol disapointing for ps3 owners. Wait until resistance 2 for a new, good shooter.

Gametrailers said it was decent:

Zaraki Kenpachi

first your video tag isn't working??
and game trailers can't be trusted...they are like x-play video reviews...that never rate right......anyways slight disappointment but doesn't matter much PS3 has many great FPS titles like resistance.2 and killzone and others....

Phatkav

You only named 2

Falkien was pretty pissed at this. He hyped the game a lot.

So far the average reviews score on gamerankings is 56% coming from 12 magazines/websites.

...You only made this topic to make fun of poor falkienz didn't you >_< lolll

Phatkav

Hell yeah I did.

And maybe of Zaraki too since he is a sony fanboy <_<

Zaraki Kenpachi

didn't expect anything from haz anyways....heck I didn't even know it was being released...I just treated it like Turok just another mediocre shooter..

THE GOOD

* Some utterly fantastic and thrilling set-piece battles
* Co-op support for up to four players makes the campaign more entertaining
* Most of the weapons feel right and are fun to shoot.

THE BAD
* Abysmal storytelling and voice acting squander the interesting premise
* Stupid artificial "intelligence"
* Multiplayer is uninspiring and unbalanced.

OVERALL
This madly inconsistent shooter offsets a number of thrilling moments with terrible artificial intelligence and an awful story.

6.0

If you played any given 10-minute chunk of Haze, depending on what part of this futuristic first-person shooter you chose, you would be convinced that it was either incredibly exciting or simply dreadful. Dim-witted artificial intelligence and deeply embarrassing storytelling are mixed with some breathtaking action sequences and thoughtful map design into an awkward and messy hodgepodge of shooting and driving that alternates between the entertaining and the downright unpleasant. It's fitting that Haze's gameplay would embrace such extremes, because its entire fiction is built around shallow absolutes. One faction embodies unlikeable and unredeeming lowbrow sensibilities without a hint of irony; the other embraces its ethical, sympathetic cause with angelically high morals. This is a shooter both easy to love and easy to hate, and you'll probably find yourself feeling both emotions within moments of each other.

seems to have nice positives..but too many negatives...and only the best FPS survive in the already crowded FPS market so haze has failed like many others...

Badie05

I expected it to change the PS3 world...it looked so amazing and so much hyped...that sucks.

Phatkav

Sucks to be a PS3 only owner and is waiting for a Halo killer.
